Moved (J. Moore) to challenge result on grounds that a previous board motion required that a candidate had to be present to be elected, and that since L. Sawyer was not present, A. Fest was automatically elected. Chair ruled challenge out of order.

Board reconvened as Local Station Board. Chair noted that no affiliate members were present and that the composition of the Delegate Assembly was identical to the LSB. Chair further confirmed with members that no one would have changed their vote if the decision had been made as the Local Station Board rather than the Delegate Assembly.

Moved (C. Travis) that KPFA LSB establish a task force to explore the potential and legal ramifications of establishing a 501(c)(3) organization.
